Aldi leaves fans in stitches with cheeky swipe at Ticketmaster amid Oasis ticket chaos

Aldi's social media team, known for their funny and sarcastic comments, couldn't resist joining in on the hot topic this weekend.

Oasis fans were excited yesterday morning (August 31) when tickets for the band's big 2025 reunion tour went on sale. The Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel, recently made up after their long-standing feud.

The tour will have 17 shows across the UK and Ireland, with concerts in places like Cardiff's Principality Stadium, Manchester's Heaton Park, London's Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh's Murrayfield, and Dublin's Croke Park. But many fans spent hours in online queues and still couldn't get tickets.

The excitement around the tour even led Greggs to share a "survival guide" for those waiting in long lines. Aldi also took a playful jab at Ticketmaster after fans complained about high ticket prices, long waits, and website crashes.

Aldi's tweet, which got over 546,000 views, compared the ticket chaos to their previous legal battle with M&S over caterpillar cakes. The supermarket tweeted: "Congratulations @TicketmasterUK - nobody's caused this much chaos on social media since Cuthbert got jailed."

Social media users found the post amusing and shared their own funny responses. One person joked, "Ribbed by Aldi, well done," while another added, "Still in queue, only 115,000 in front of me." A third suggested, "You should sell concert tickets in your middle aisle... at least we know we wouldn't get scammed."

In the past, Marks & Spencer's Colin the Caterpillar cake was involved in an online spat between M&S and Aldi when the budget supermarket released Cuthbert, a similar cake for £4.99. In
